摘要:
A supply device for a radio frequency ignition system, including a supply circuit to provide a supply voltage to an output connected to a plasma generation resonator at a frequency defined by a control signal provided by a control device for the supply circuit. The control device includes a receiver interface for a determination request for the optimum control frequency, a receiver interface for receiving signals measuring the voltage at the pins of a capacitor in the supply circuit, a determination module for the optimum control frequency, to provide successive different control frequencies for the supply circuit for successive ignition commands on reception of a request and to determine an optimum control frequency based on received measured signals.

A high voltage resonator-amplifier for a radiofrequency ignition system that can be used in an internal combustion engine, the resonator-amplifier including at least two electrodes, a coil arranged in alignment with the electrodes along a longitudinal axis, and a linking mechanism retaining the coil and the electrodes in a relatively fixed position. The coil is wound around a closed bend which in turn wraps around the longitudinal axis.

A spark plug for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle; the spark plug is embodied with a generally essentially long shape and includes: an essentially capacitive lower part including two coaxial electrodes, one of which is a central electrode, and the other a threaded shell for screwing in the spark plug on the engine; and an essentially inductive upper part including a central winding including a plurality of coils wound around a coaxial mandrel, an envelope, and an insulator inserted between the envelope and the winding. The essentially capacitive part and the essentially inductive part are mechanically interconnected as to enable transmission of a clamping couple applied to the envelope to the essentially capacitive lower part. The mandrel can be elastically deformed as to compensate effects of dilation of the insulator.

A method for controlling a radio-frequency plasma generator including a supply circuit with a switch controlled by at least one control pulse train, for applying an intermediate voltage at a control frequency on an output to which is connected a resonator for generating a spark between two electrodes when a high voltage level is applied to the output. The method receives first and second measurement signals respectively representative of the operation of a combustion engine and of the type of spark generated; and real-time adjusts, based on the received measurement signals, at least one parameter selected from at least the intermediate voltage level, the control frequency, and the duration of the control train, to promote branching of the spark generated.

An essentially-elongated spark plug for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, including: an essentially-capacitive lower part including two coaxial electrodes; an essentially-inductive upper part including a central mandrel, a coaxial winding around the mandrel, and an external tubular casing that serves as electromagnetic armor; and an insulant disposed radially between the casing and the winding. The essentially-inductive upper part includes a second internal casing of electromagnetic armor, which is disposed radially between the insulant and the external casing.

The invention relates to a plasma-generating spark plug which undergoes excitation in the radio frequency domain. The invention comprises at least one first metallic electrode (12, 14), an insulator (13), one of which is equipped with a housing (130) in which the other element (13, 14) is mounted with a gap (15, 16) therebetween. The surface of the insulator (13) opposite the first electrode (12, 14) is metallised.

A sparkplug including an induction coil and an electrode. The induction coil includes two end portions, the electrode extending in a continuation of one of the two end portions. The induction coil includes a conducting wire wound to form a succession of turns, the one of the two end portions having a terminal turn connected to the electrode. The one of the two end portions includes a plurality of coaxial end turns that extend between the terminal turn and an upstream turn, and the terminal turn has a diameter smaller than the diameter of the upstream turn so to reduce strength of the electric field induced in the one of said two end portions near the terminal turn.
